R132

R132 near Man O' War

Northbound looking towards the former temporary terminus of the M1. The M1 would have started where the central barrier ends and headed in a straight line in the distance. This is now abandoned and the road now turns right but the road markings and unlit streetlights of the abandoned stretch are still there. The M1 now runs to the left of the picture.

N1 Dundalk-Border 15th June 2007

About the cross the border from NI into the Republic on the A1/N1 border. The (learner) driver in front is about to cross the border - since (s)he had been carefully observing the annoying NI provisional restriction by sticking to 40mph, I'll assume the driver was in possession of two provisional licences, one for each juristiction. You can just make out the change in road markings and the 100km/h speed limit signs just across the border.

Upper Main Street (R132) in Dunleer, Co. Louth

N1 sign north of Swords

There's a traffic jam heading in this direction but there are two empty lanes going the other way. The N1 here was reclassified as the R132 in 2004.

Red man on pedestrian crossing, Drumcondra Road, Dublin

This pedestrian crossing seems staggered and split in two parts but actually the lights do not work separately that the 'two' crossings both show the same lights as if it is a one single crossing rather than two. Quite bizarre!

Ravensdale Junction (N1 Southbound Exit)

Chopsticks Flag Sign on R132 (old N1) at Ravensdale

Heading south on the R132 towards Major's Hollow Roundabout, this sign warns drivers of the end of hard shoulder ahead - dating from the route's busier days as the N1.

Major's Hollow Roundabout, Co. Louth

N1 at Dundalk

I assume this sign will go once the M1 extension is open and Belfast will be signed to the left.

Continuously flashing amber arrows

Traffic lights on a separate left or right turn lane, in Ireland, usually have flashing amber arrows to warn of giving way to traffic already on the main road. This prevents the driver from assuming they automatically have right of way. Sometimes 'Give Way/Yield' signs are immediately displayed after the lights. Central Dublin

Plessey Mellor Amber Arrow and Bike Signal

N1 Ireland, just before Dublin City Center. The amber arrows here flash to depict that traffic in the direction of the arrow must give way to traffic on the main (or adjoining) carriageway.
